El Yucateco Achiote Annatto Paste – Traditional Yucatán Marinade Base 

Bold, earthy, and deeply aromatic — El Yucateco Achiote Annatto Paste is the heart of authentic Yucatán cuisine.

Made with ground annatto seeds, garlic, spices, and vinegar, this rich red paste is the essential base for traditional dishes like cochinita pibil, pollo asado, and Yucatán-style tamales. El Yucateco’s formula offers a perfect balance of colour, spice, and tang — infusing meats and vegetables with a warm, peppery flavour and vibrant red hue.

Just dissolve in orange juice, vinegar, or oil to create a ready-to-use marinade packed with authentic Mexican taste.
